A great pot does a lot of heavy lifting ✨ Before a plant is even dropped in, it sets the tone for a space. A considered choice can anchor a corner, add texture to a flat wall, or bring warmth to a room that feels like it’s missing something.
Every year, our design team curates a shortlist of the pots we genuinely love styling with—and recommending to clients. This year’s list spans five suppliers and 30 picks, from handmade Italian terracotta to sculptural fibreglass. It’s also a pretty good snapshot of the pot trends shaping 2026.
What we’re seeing this year:
Texture is doing the work. Smooth, glossy pots have taken a back seat. What’s drawing us in right now is surface—ribbing, cross-hatch etching, woodfired finishes, reactive glazes, and hand-thrown irregularities. Pots you want to touch as much as look at.
Earthy tones, not stark whites. Our palette runs from warm chalk and flax to olive, slate, ivory travertine, and terracotta blush. A grounded, natural range that sits well with greenery and doesn’t date.
Handmade matters. A significant portion of this year’s picks are handcrafted. There’s a clear shift toward pieces with genuine provenance and character.
Scale is back. One considered large pot does more for a space than three small ones.
Practicality hasn’t been sacrificed. Self-watering systems, lightweight fibreglass, indoor/outdoor versatility—these pots look considered but are built for real environments.
